thx for the info. i wonder why SG doesn't use the same sensors that core temp does...Quote:

haha. that's what i did with my stick... used another set of ddr2 and then tried my stick a couple days later and viola!!Quote:

Guys I just noticed something strange.... If you set 1.65/1.7v + on the NB the (Graphic interface transfer rate) drops down to 1x on the motherboard tab of CPU-Z.
Can you guys confirm this is the case with your rigs, I am using the 1005 BIOS BTW but confirmation with any BIOS would be nice.
CN :)
i'd love to help you, but even tho i JUST GOT MY RIG up with this board i won't be able to attend to it until probably sun night. :(Quote:

Thanks for the reply bud, its not really a major problem for me as 1.57-1.61v NB is all I need to do what I want anyway so don't rush your build on my behalf.Quote:

CN.
I'll look into it next time I reboot Craig:up:...OK...9/13/07 VTT 1.60v NBVTT 1.70v 116-116-118.........................Quote:

im on 0913 still, not finished with tweaking this BIOS yet.
Is it true 533 memory won't boot with this board?
I have crucial Anniversary sticks, so this might be a problem. What 2x1GB sticks do you recommend? I'm thinking OCZ due to their close work with DFI?
Flash the SPD's, they carry the same chips as the ballistixQuote:

p.s. NB is 1.4v Mem is 2.14v, not very clear in the picture.
lol seanie's show, memories.:DQuote:

I don't have a PC to do that from, so I take that as a no about 533 memory. Feel a bit ripped by Crucial for this so called "special 10th anniversary which is apparently cherry picked".Quote:

I found that G Skill HZ, G Skill, And OCZ Titanium and Platinum work fine. Board detects and sets corret start up. VDIMM droop is pretty bad..about .02 under load.
No CAS4 :o
Is that ever going to resolve? I'd like to see some CAS4 action one of these days...
LOL :rofl: I tried for 3.8ghz, but the voltages needed to keep it stable there "right across the board" are stupid high along with the temps, im quite happy with low voltages and 3.6ghz, with 3gb (4 sticks of Crucial Ballistix) sitting at 1080mhz, thats plenty fast enough for me.Quote:

anyone have any suggestion on how to get my quad stable at 3.2
here are my settings
vcore 1.3
vnb 1.41
vtt 1.4
vdimm 2.14
gtl 100/100/100
while i send my ocz'z back for rma, what should i get while i wait for them? another set of the same? or go the pc2 9600? or something different?
Andrew
What are you using to monitor the memory voltage. Regardless of system settings I have found VDIMM to be rock solid.Quote:

I'm lazy about it and use notso Smart Guardian to monitor the rig.Quote:

I am very impressed with this board. I've used a fair number of boards and this one stands out.
Brother Esau had asked about memory voltage before. This was my measured voltage at that time.

Count yourself lucky you only see 0.02v droop, I have set 2.23v to the mem in the bios, in SG I see 2.14v to the mem, either SG is reading it wrong or im loosing a shed load of mem volts, upto 0.10v, somewhere between post and Windows OS.Quote:
